Allow email MFA authenticators to share email addresses across users

Account email addresses do not need to be unique, but email MFA authenticators currently do due to database constraints.

Update the database schema so the same email address can be used by email MFA authenticators on multiple user accounts.

Useful in the case of admin and non-admin accounts sharing the same email and both accounts wanting to use email MFA.
